Title: Is this a Fratelli Toso Millefiori miniature vase
Post by: mhgcgolfclub on September 30, 2009, 09:17:01 PM

Not some thing I would normally buy but it came cheap with a few other pieces of glass. I know Fratelli Toso made similar pieces but not sure if any one else made similar items, any help on maker and date would be much appreciated, height 2.75" or 7cm, feels like a slightly rough pontil mark

Thanks Roy

Yes, it looks like FT from the earlier part of the 20th Century. I would bet it is a good bit older than jp.  ;)
